Why choose waterproof gumboots?

Tough conditions are a common occurrence in many industrial workplaces. When faced with wet, muddy or slippery conditions, wearing waterproof boots is essential to health, safety and well-being. Whether it’s exposure to a few minutes of rain or facing a waterlogged terrain all day, it’s vital to keep feet dry. Not only for safety purposes but to prevent the spread of bacteria, foot fungi and infection.

Wayne offers a range of reliable waterproof boots that offer protection from water-associated hazards. This is possible through our choice of durable, insulating materials that keep feet dry. Many gumboots tend to keep moisture like sweat inside footwear but Wayne’s gumboots are made with a nylon liner to promote fast drying. This prevents moisture build up and improves overall hygiene.

Our PU gumboots are foamed and contain millions of tiny air bubbles. This allows feet to breathe by letting the trapped air in gumboots exchange heat and moisture with surrounding air. This allows feet to stay at an optimum temperature whether it is hot or cold.

Wayne’s gumboots are designed to be light and flexible, making them nothing like the heavy and stiff offerings evident in the market today. Our lighter PU allows for improved flexibility, balance, dexterity and speed. A unique gumboot design also allows us to enhance these properties, letting us create a boot that weighs even less. Strategic material distribution has also allowed the boot to be thicker in places where more protection is needed and thinner where flexibility is required.

Wayne PU and PVC gumboots offer better protection against a full range of oils, fats and acids. Whether it’s our agricultural and forestry, food processing and hygiene, general purpose or heavy-duty applications, our gumboots are fit for any and all environments.
